Big Finish has announced a new cast member for the Bernice Summerfield audio range.Thomas Grant, whose credits include the films Vanity Fair and Dummy and roles in TV dramasMidsomer Murdersand Mayo, will be joining the cast playing Benny's son Peter. He will appear in the forthcoming The End of the World, and then in The Wake in December.

'We're delighted Thomas can join us in a regular role,' says producer Simon Guerrier. 'He comes highly recommended and is very much in demand. Which is just as well, as he's got a crucial role to play in the next few plays - one that'll change Benny's life forever.'

Due to his other commitments, Thomas recorded his scenes at the end of July. 'Which means I've decided to delay the release of The End of the World to early September,' says Guerrier.

With delaying The End of the World in his first appearance, Peter will be a strong character in the range for the upcoming season.
